Southern Brisket Sandwiches with Picked Onions
On July 11, 2012
Who likes breakfast for dinner??? I do! When I saw a corned beef brisket I knew I was going to make corned beef hash from scratch (one of my breakfast favorites) for dinner. After I spent hours cooking my “corned” beef and the house smelled so good I practically needed a bib [...]

On December 7, 2011
I’ve said before that we never used to eat lamb much because in the States it can be expensive for the chops. Here inBahrain, however, because lamb is such a large part of local cuisine, it’s very affordable. We have lamb chops now at least once a week, but we usually order them for [...]

Oxtail Ragu: A Welcome Home Supper

You know the saying, absence makes the heart grow fonder? My husband and I love and appreciate each other everyday, but when he is away the kids and I miss him terribly and are always overjoyed when he comes home. If you read my post about the gnocchi [...]
Cider Glazed Lamb Chops

Back in the States, lamb is so expensive, so it was usually reserved for a special, kid-free occasion. However, lamb is widely available here, and is much more wallet-friendly. So now lamb no longer has to be reserved for special occasions, just for an ordinary Tuesday.
